Apologies mate, was in Glebe most of the time, not a bad place really, Toxteth Hotel on Glebe Point Rd doesn't look much from the front, but m**** me it does a good feed...and the walk along the foreshore is awesome...still on cloud 9 tbh, no idea how I'm going to concentrate in this meeting coming up.

Ah mate, meetings come and go, who cares?

That "first blushes of love" feeling far more important and enjoyable.

I'd be running with that, personally.

Great to hear you had a good time when you were here.

Good on you, that feeling won't go away if you don't let it. Given it's only been 3 years for Kirk and I but still.....

Deadline for my dissertation put back three weeks. Much needed.

Ruined:
This.

The result was heartbreaking for Jacqeline Quest's owner Noel Martin, who named the filly after his dead wife.

Martin, who is a quadriplegic after a concrete block was thrown through his windscreen by neo-Nazis causing him to crash into a tree in 1996, was interviewed on Channel 4 before the result was reversed.

Speaking afterwards, he said: "Never mind, we will do another interview some other time. It's not a loss, it's one of those things.

"British horse racing hasn't had a race taken away for God knows when. I've been through a lot of bad luck so it's not a problem."
So, so wrong.

Got through another day and the last day of the working week is tomorrow

Ruined:

Starting to believe that I'm paranoid about things. I'm anticipating something will happen (as in bad) and I plan my response to it, but it never happens. I'm wondering when my psychotic breakdown will be.

I fly back to Brisbane tonight

gives hope
She's moving to brisbane in 6 weeks, and we'll be going on a second date.

annoys
It'll be 6 weeks until i see her again.

Made me smile
She just texted me.

Look at me..I'm a blubbering mess...and I love it.

*Insert indian love song here*
Good on you mate.

See you in the Girl Trouble thread in a few weeks.

See here
Went for my first run since that running event about six weeks ago, feeling stiff now but it's good to get back into it.
Smashed an economics tutorial quiz, really needed the boost after bombing the mid-term.

Ruined
So much work

Made my day:
School took me and some other people to Aintree Racecourse. We were in a room high up in the stand and had an amazing view of the racecourse. We could see the water jump, the finish line, Red Rum's grave (although I've been in touching distance of it before today), other famous fences and even my uncle.

Ruined my day:
Nothing.

Made my yesterday:
Overheard conversation when walking past the local Time Zone on the main drag, a notorious place for local ruffians and neerdowells to congregate and converse in a vile manner:
"Ey Mallrat, whats 'appenin'!?"
"Just got out of the cells!"
"Aww really? I just got out of court!"
